Talking about the initiative, Mr. HP Singh, Managing Director and Founder, Tomorrow's India Global Summit said, "The student university visits are a part of our ethos to showcase India to the world. Tomorrow's India provides a platform for students to explore various cultural and educational opportunities that Universities in Seoul have to offer.

Students will not only get to experience the university life in Korea but also will get to attend the classroom sessions. This is an excellent opportunity for the students to have first-hand discussions with Korean professors which will offer them a window of opportunity to observe and consider studying in Asia's third largest economy."

The initiative by Tomorrow's India Global Summit complements the already established Korean policies for higher education where the government offers scholarships to promote diversity in academia as a result of which, international students in South Korea benefit from scholarships at the undergraduate and postgraduate level.

The Korean Government Scholarship Program also promotes international cooperation in education by inviting talented international students to Korea for advanced studies, especially research students at the master's and doctoral level.

Korea has a multitude of established global brands such as Samsung, Kia Motors, Hyundai and so on which also have a strong foothold in India. An initiative such as this is fully poised to encourage Indian students to opt for higher education in Korea and utilize their skills to contribute to these top organisations of the world.

Tomorrow's India Global Summit is being supported by the Embassy of India in the Republic of Korea, and will have participants from India, Korea, Ethiopia, Finland, Singapore, South Africa, Taiwan and Zimbabwe.
